barklouse/Psocomorpha. Looks like Graphopsocus and I think there's only one species in the western Palearctic

Thanks a lot, Steve,
I hadn't thought about Psocoptera! Indeed, there can only be one species in France: Graphopsocus cruciatus.

You'e quite welcome. That's the same species we have; supposedly introduced to North America in the 1930's
